Orange Cream Cheese Frosting Made With Fresh Juice And Zest

"Made with fresh orange juice and zest, this orange cream cheese frosting has a bright citrus flavor and a thick, pipe-able texture. It comes together in about 5 minutes and is perfect for spreading on cakes, swirling onto cupcakes, or dressing up cookies that need a little extra pop. This frosting is a little sweeter than a lemon cream cheese frosting recipe, but the orange flavor is still just as bright. You’ll want to use fresh orange juice and zest for real orange flavor, as bottled juice won’t have that same vibrant taste. You’ll make this frosting just like any other classic cream cheese frosting with a base of room temperature butter and cream cheese, and powdered sugar, but you’ll add a splash of orange juice and a bit of orange zest.
